[QUOTE="randiliana, post: 239029, member: 2308"] Is she just jerking the lead out of your hand, or is she running off on you?? Once you get her tied, to an inner tube with enough rope that if she goes down she has enough slack to get back up on her own. Let her fight it out, and don't interfere unless she is going to get hurt (i.e. rope tangled [b]around[/b] the leg). Whatever you do, unless she is going to be injured don't let her go until she has quit pulling, and is standing calmly. Which will enforce the idea that the only way she gets released is if she is behaving. Remember, that if you do get in the way when she is fighting, you could be seriously injured if she suddenly jumps ahead or rears. You will probably have to repeat the lesson more than once, especially if she realized what happened when she broke the halter (she got free). The lesson could take a few minutes, or a long time.
